Has anyone heard of these guys before??? They look like a neat and practical idea in theory.

You may be thinking of the little pod back pack converti thingos stevos sell Rossi!! This is a little Different! It is soft on the bottom, and has expandable sides from 20 litres to 60 litres! It mounts to the seat.

Just wondering as they are a Norwiegen manufacturer and I havn't seen them here in Oz.
Here's the linky!....

I dont like strapping things on it can mark the bike if not carefull. I would go for a ventura, less fiddly.

However, if they make you go faster Im in.

If you strap on stuff made of softer rubber Hoffy, it does less damage. You'll just have to lash out and spend a bit more on the quality stuff next visit to the XXX store mate!!!! :lol:

I will not buy another Ventura Bag. the racks are great, but with two failures in two bags, I don't want the hassles. I just ordered a new Gearsack Brand bag! Hopefully it won't fall apart! Maybe it's me, I dunno, but i have been riding for a while now, and this is the first bag failure I have ever had!

But this looked like a neat idea. And a little nicer than the back packie thingos Stevos sell! :wink:
